Global Monopoly of Technology

On November 7th, at dusk in the East Eight District time.

Science and Technology Complex Building.

"Master, the solar storm is expected to arrive in 30 minutes." Xiaona's voice responded in the large living room. At this moment, the housemaid was setting up candlelight, and the sound of whistle sounded outside Su City, and the citizens of the city could hear it. See.

"Turn off the power system of the building, and Xiaona, you should go to sleep as soon as possible." Luo Sheng, who was standing by the window, said succinctly, silently looking at the city scene below.

"Yes, Master."

The building's electrical system was shut down, replaced by the light of candles, enough to fill the room.

An Qingxue came to Luo Sheng, "Sucheng, including major cities across the country, has announced an early curfew. Except for key public facilities such as hospitals, all non-essential facilities will be powered off to prevent secondary disasters."

There is less than half an hour left for the arrival of the solar storm. The news has been announced to the whole country through the entire network and major media channels. All citizens and ordinary people know that part of the current communication system is still in operation, but it will soon be will be paralyzed.

Luo Sheng looked at the sky outside the window: "Tonight, let's enjoy the wonders of the aurora that have never been seen in a thousand years. For a long time in the future, it will be difficult to see decent lighting at night."

On the contrary, the people in the country are quite looking forward to the next moment. Anyway, the major economic losses caused by such cosmic natural disasters cannot be prevented. In addition, such disasters only cause economic losses, and will not cause life safety as natural disasters such as earthquakes and tsunamis. Threats, but not so afraid.

Since it is impossible to stop it and look at the solar storm from another angle, the people in China feel that it is worthwhile to encounter such a spectacle that has never been seen in a thousand years in this life.

The domestic side also publicly warned the world to prepare for the storm, but at this moment, at this juncture, the issue of whether or not to power outage is still on the European and North American side.

Seeing such a situation, my rabbit was also angry, and in the end, I scolded and ignored it, loving it.

...

At 18:26 in the East Eighth District, the super solar storm still arrived as scheduled and struck.

At this moment, all four of Luo Sheng's family were dining by candlelight in the dome of the Science and Technology Complex. It was just right at night, and an unprecedented super "electric light show" appeared on the sky. The nighttime wonders that can only be witnessed can be seen today even on the equator.

"Ooooooo~~~"

The whole city was full of people at this moment, Luo Sheng couldn't help laughing when he heard the jubilant shouts from the whole city: "This is not giving face to the solar storm at all, it is also an unprecedented cosmic natural disaster? Those who don't know think that It's a grand celebration."

The roads in major cities across the country are empty? Because the curfew has been imposed, but all the cities are boiling at this moment? Citizens in the cities do not want to miss this historic moment.

So people either gathered on the dome of the building, or gathered on the balcony of each house.

In comparison, people in villages all over the country are much freer. They left their houses and came to the open space outside the venue. One billion people looked up at the stars at almost the same time? This is an unprecedented special record.

There is no need for lighting? Because the entire earth is illuminated by a colorful light curtain at night? The starry sky is mixed with red, blue, green, purple and other rays of light, like a dream.

"This magnificent and moving scene is the aurora? It turns out that the aurora looks like this, there are so many colors? Isn't it only green?"

"Let me give you a brief introduction? The nitrogen and oxygen content in the atmosphere determines the color of the aurora? And the nitrogen and oxygen content has a great relationship with the altitude. So far, more than six colors of the aurora have been confirmed. ."

"how romantic……"

"The beauty is so shocking!"

...

People all over the country are admiring the natural wonders that have never been seen in thousands of years? And the thousands of staff who are guarding against the background are very nervous now.

It's beautiful? But the harm behind it is also obvious? Mishandling the secondary disasters that follow up can be very dangerous.

At this moment? All the satellites in the earth's orbit are paralyzed? Whether it is the old American GPS, the European Galileo system, or the domestic Beidou system, under the impact of this super solar storm, no one survived. .

Compared with the mentality of the whole people in China to appreciate natural wonders, it is the opposite in foreign countries, and greater confusion will follow.

At this moment, the western hemisphere is not yet dawn, but it is also illuminated by this aurora as if it were daytime.

At this time, some ignorant people took out their mobile phones to take pictures of the scene, but the internal battery burned, and many people suffered from it. Some people kept clicking on the map software and found that the navigation did not work at all, and then cursed Google satellite scum.

The satellites in the sky are all gg, and the navigation can still be used.

Some people are even worse. They put their mobile phones in their trouser pockets, and then their crotch blooms. There are not a few people who suffer from the second brother and two sisters. This is a loss of ignorance.

In New York City, there was no power outage in the end, and it was too late.

The result was a spate of open-air substations that crackled and sparked violent sparks that exploded and set fires across the city.

Not only New York City, but also Los Angeles, Chicago, and San Francisco. The major cities in Europe are no exception. Cities such as London and Paris have all caught fire because of electrical circuits.

After receiving the notification from the relevant departments and units, the ordinary people in the country shut down all the substations, and every household had their gates closed in advance.

When a storm strikes, accompanied by a super-powerful electromagnetic pulse, there is no secondary disaster such as a major fire in a city in China. Although firefighters in major cities are always prepared, they are useless.

This is the current gap between domestic and foreign defenses, and this is why ordinary people in China can enjoy the beauty of the aurora comfortably.

On the contrary, other so-called developed countries around the world are currently in dire straits at this moment.

In Europe and the United States, on the eve of the solar storm, many people are still watching family soap operas, talk shows, etc. At the moment when the electromagnetic pulse hits, TV sets and computers are scrapped in an instant, and even many household appliances are Followed by scrapped fire, and then caused an indoor fire.

At the moment when the super storm hit, the entire New York City was completely powered off, and the bustling metropolis was plunged into darkness. It didn't take long for New York City to be relit by fires blazing across the city.

The entire city fell into even greater chaos during the fire. The local firefighting resources were limited to put out the fire in the homes of the wealthy. As for the local ordinary families, they either put out the fire themselves, or watched their homes engulfed in flames.

Even the wealthy areas still do not have enough firefighting resources. The solar storm does not threaten their lives. However, their disregard and quarrel, the secondary disasters caused by the solar storm not only threaten the safety of property, but also the safety of life.

At this moment, a series of metropolises in Europe and the United States have erupted in different degrees of fire, and the more prosperous the area, the more severely affected by the fire.

As the saying goes, blessings do not come alone, misfortunes do not come alone, natural disasters are already tragic enough, and even worse, the local public security environment has plummeted, the crime rate has skyrocketed, everyone is in danger, and the fires in major cities are accompanied by gunshots. , screaming, panic, crazy.

The death toll is soaring, and the murders follow.

The social order is basically in a state of semi-paralysis...
